Mixing With A New Trend

Recently I came across a few of the bloggers that I follow, and noticed they were blogging this hair from Maitreya.  I've always wanted to see male hair from this designer, but no such luck at this point.  The one thing I do like about this hair tho, is the ability to use it as a unisex style.  

One thing I can never stop buying on second life is Jeans. I recently visited Muism and found they had a a few new styles of  Jeans available.  I really do like the texture that was put into all of them.


Last thing I want to mention are these new sneakers from Hoorenbeek.  I am a true believer in white shoes or sneakers on my feet. That also stems into my real life, for some reason all other colors look off. The Streeterville line has a new style, that I haven't really seen on second life.

New Face At The Circus

           
I would like to say a quick hello, to the followers of this blog. I will be appearing here at Vanity Circus as a guest male blogger.  I have known Temperance for quite a while now, and I've always loved her style. I couldn't think of a better person that I would want to do this with. I will be showing my styles on this blog only, so please let your friends know that a new male blogger, is on the grid. 

The leather jacket I am wearing , is the latest from Jamie Holmer at INDI Designs.  I must say, the detailing is very well done, and the colors look very rich.  If your looking for a stylish meets casual look, this is the jacket to buy.


The Lotta hair from Discord Designs is quite the attention seeker. I was very impressed with the fine detailing that was put into these amazing dreadlocks.  I am really not the one to wear dreadlocks on second life, but this hair caught my attention, at Hair Fair 2011.

Last thing I want to mention , are these stylish shoes from Redgrave. They have a great blend of style and color that will match any stylish outfit you could think of. Great Buy.

In between

In Between

I cannot begin to tell you how overwhelmed I am by the sheer volume of new hair releases. It seems like there is new hair everywhere on the grid. I cannot keep up!

In Between - line up

I'm wearing this swimming suit from Nemesis. It's called the Dancer Swimsuit. I really love the different colours this suit comes in. It also has a matching cover up. I love the way these two pieces look together. This is def a great summer look!

I'm featuring the newest hair styles from CaTwA. Out of these three styles I have to say that Hayfa is my absolute favourite.

CaTwA - Hayfa

Hayfa comes with three different versions so if you don't like the strands of hair in your face then you can change it. Personally I love the strands across the face, it really makes it look the wind is blowing your hair. Hayfa also comes with a highlight menu so this hair has the ability to look different every time you wear it.

Next up is Lamar. I love how long this hair is. I love the shape and the soft bangs. It's a great style!

CaTwA - Lamar

Last but not least is Nouf. A short little summer bob. This does have flexi parts in it so it'll move with avie! Super cute and available in all different colours! Try a demo.

CaTwA - Nouf

First up is the stuff from Shag. Did you know that Shag just got a colour overhaul? Yup, that's right. All the textures have been jacked up. I'm lovin' them. They're awesome. I'm showing you mostly the dark shades but all shades are available at the Hair Fair.

Hair Fair - Wind in the Willows

I love the breezy look of this hair. I can def see this being used for fashion shoots in the nearfuture. I'm equally impressed with the textures on this hair. I'm addicted to brown hair and these textures are being added to my favourite pile!

Hair Fair 2011 - Part Two

Hair FairTemp&Howard2

I thought it might be neat to have a male perspective on Hair Fair so I asked my buddy Howard Rushwald to help me out with this post.

I'm featuring hair for AOHARU. I am so impressed with these designs. I really love the ribbon that's woven through two of the hair styles. Props to you AOHARU for some rockin' hair.

Megan comes with a colour change script in the hat. I really love the shape of the hat it looks so realistic. I especially love the length of this hair. Not too long but not short either.

Hair Fair 2011 - Part One

Hair Fair (Part One)

I've decided to break this into parts because of the sheer volume of AMAZING HAIR I have to post! Hair Fair opened at 12am SLT July 2nd. It's amazing. All the creators have made such great hairs. I can't even begin to tell you how hard it was to blog this event. I wanted to do everything, but obviously because of time/budget I won't be able to do that. There are tons and tons of bloggers covering this event so make sure you stalk the feeds for the next few weeks.

With that being said... onto my coverage:

Hair Fair - With
Gotta say I pretty much loved all the styles [e] had out! However, I focused myself to pick my favourite and so I am wearing "With". I really love casual up-does especially with a headpiece.

Hair Fair - Luna
Oh Magika... I really love the length and the braid at the bottom.

Hair Fair - Local Native
Pr!tty is new to me but I was digging this style. I especially loved the headpiece w/ feathers. I seem to be stuck on feathers lately. lol

Hair Fair - Rebecca
Slink... I didn't know Slink did hair?! But I am super happy it was at Hair Fair. I really love this low pony style. I love the detail at the back with the braid.

Hair Fair - Knotted Hair
Oh LeLutka... you cannot do wrong in my books. I really liked everything featured at the Hair Fair but again I forced myself to pick my favourite and "Knotted Hair" came out victorious.
The outfit:

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE these eyes from FASHISM. I saw them on Kaelyn Alecto's blog and I told her they were stunning. She is a darling and a sweet friend and gifted them to me. Thank you Kaelyn! <3. I am really impressed with FASHISM eyes in general but these are def my fave atm!

And MIEL!!! WOW?!? This necklace is... my jam. lol ... yeah I really said that ;)
